1954 Riley RME 1.5 litre walkround

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Here is a walkround of my Riley RME. What a superbly stylish car these were. 1.5 litre, twin-cam engine and great handling for the year. This 1954 car recently appeared in a film which is due to be released later in 2024, where it was pictured driving up to a stately home and parking up.

    probably cost 650 pounds new, but the pound was worth $5 back in those days...

    One of those would be a great garage companion for my 3 Citroen Tractions. The bumps in the roof fabric are a little worrisome; could there be rot in the wood? Also, I've heard that you can now get flashing LED bulbs for the trafficators.

    The flashing LEDs for the trafficators sound interesting. It would save adding non-standard indicators. The biggest issue I find with trafficators is that drivers behind aren't watching for them and tend to nearly pile into the back of you...then hoot at you. I'm not sure about the bumps in the roof. I guess it could be wood rot, but have never checked. The roof seems solid, but I can't give you a definitive answer on it. Love the Traction Avants. I had a LHD once once, and it drove so much more like a modern car than others in the era.
